Finally, after years of remaining at the same level, the Indiana Worker’s Compensation Board and State of Indiana increased the financial recovery rates an injured worker can claim for their case. www.in.gov/wcb/files/PPIandTTD-benefits2023_1.3_.pdf For injuries that occur on or after July 1, 2023, an injured worker may recover more money for their PPI and TTD benefits. The schedule used by the state increases annually over the next four years. Understanding these rate tables can be complicated. Since every dollar for your work injury case is precious, you should contact Goodin Abernathy for legal help.
Worker’s Compensation Laws
Employees hurt on the job in Indiana are protected by Indiana’s Worker’s Compensation laws. Attorney Jim Browne and Goodin Abernathy regularly help our Hispanic clients navigate the legal process to protect their rights and fight for more benefits. This article highlights main points of the Indiana Worker’s Compensation process.
Each state uses different laws for their worker’s compensation (“work comp”) claims. In Indiana, a work injury is considered a civil law claim. It does not involve criminal or immigration law issues. Something a little different about work comp claims is an agency handles the legal process – not a court of law. The Indiana Worker’s Compensation Board is the agency that tracks and handles these cases. You can learn more about the Board at this website https://www.in.gov/wcb/
An important part about Indiana’s work comp law is that an employer cannot defend a case based on liability or fault. Unlike an auto accident or other typical type of injury claim, it does not matter whether an employee was negligent and did something to cause the accident. As long as the employee was not intoxicated or intended to hurt themself, Indiana requires the employer to offer benefits.
Unfortunately, we often hear that employers threaten immigration reporting or similar problems when their employees are injured. You should not be afraid of immigration issues. Indiana’s work comp law allows any worker to make a claim. Your immigration status does not affect your legal rights and does not involve notifying the U.S. Immigration Customs and Enforcement (“ICE”) agency. Hispanic workers should not be concerned about immigration problems and notify their employer or supervisor immediately if injured on the job. Make sure to report your injury right away because waiting to do so may allow the employer to dispute responsibility.
Preliminarily, a couple legal issues we see affecting work comp claims involve whether the worker was an employee and whether the employer has insurance coverage. Determining whether an injured worker is an employee or independent contractor can be a complicated legal question. Since Indiana law does not require employers to offer independent contractors work comp benefits, let’s review some basic differences between employees and independent contractors.
Signs That Show A Worker Is An Employee
The worker is paid with a company check
Taxes are taken out of their pay checks
Worker does not work at other jobs
Worker does not have her/his own business
Worker uses the employer’s equipment
Worker regularly visits the employer’s place of business
Works the hours and schedule the employer chooses
An Independent Contractor Is Usually Identified When These Circumstances Apply
The worker has her / his own company
They work for various other companies
They do not work for the employer full time
They receive a 1099 tax form from the employer
They do not have taxes withheld from their payments
They use their own vehicles and equipment to perform the work
Worker’s compensation insurance coverage is an important part of the claim. Without insurance coverage, employers usually cannot pay the benefits they owe their injured employees. Many employers are small companies or individuals and choose not to pay for insurance. This is an important reason why you should ask if your employer has worker’s compensation insurance. A legal option that sometimes helps injured workers in these situations is if your employer is performing work for another company or contractor. Typical examples of this arrangement are found in construction and staffing agency arrangements. Indiana’s work comp law allows us to take one step up and make a claim for benefits from the general contractor or staffing agency if the primary employer does not carry insurance.
When an employee is injured on the job, Indiana law requires the employer to offer various benefits. The first and probably most important benefit is for medical treatment. If you visit the doctors, therapists and medical providers the employers offer, they must pay for all your costs. You are not responsible for deductible payments. You are not required to use your own health insurance or take FMLA time. Since your health and well-being are your primary concerns, you may seek medical treatment immediately after your work accident. If your employer or the insurance company deny you treatment, then you should seek legal help immediately. The attorneys at Goodin Abernathy understand the process and will explain your rights.
When a doctor or medical expert says you cannot work due to your injuries, you may claim Temporary Total Disability (“TTD”) payments. Indiana’s work comp law requires employers to pay two – thirds (66.66%) of your regular income while you cannot work. These TTD payments are not reduced for income tax or other typical withholdings. Before the payments start, the doctor must determine that you miss more than seven (7) consecutive days of work. If you miss thirty (30) consecutive days or more, than the employer must go back and pay you for the first 7 days of work that you missed. Sometimes, workers do not miss time off work immediately after their injury. But later, they require surgery or start treatment that keeps them off work. The TTD rules also apply to these subsequent periods of missed work.
When the employer or its insurance company determine that certain benefits should finish, they are required to send you a Termination of Benefits form. The form looks like this www.in.gov/wcb/files/Blank-38911.pdf If you dispute that benefits should stop, it is important to respond to these within seven days of receiving the form. If you fail to respond, then technically the employer may stop sending you the TTD benefits.
The final type of benefits owed to an injured employee involves the Permanent Partial Impairment (“PPI”) value of your injury. Basically, this benefit pays the employee for the future impairment they will suffer from the injury. That is, how will the injury interfere with their work and ability to earn income in the future. Calculating this benefit is complicated. For instance, the doctors and work comp Board uses the AMA Guidelines for reference. https://www.ama-assn.org/delivering-care/ama-guides/ama-guides-evaluation-permanent-impairment-overview. To understand it best, you should contact our Legalmente Hablando Indy team for representation. We will examine the medical records, show you how the government calculates the benefits and describe your legal options for maximizing recovery of PPI benefits.
Indiana law controls how attorneys charge for legal services in work comp claims. All attorneys in the state charge the same percentages for contingency fees. Since we charge a contingency fee, that means we collect our fees only when we win and you get paid money for your claim. If we do not collect money, then you do not pay. Our legal fee agreements are explained in both Spanish and English.
If you or a loved one are injured in a workplace accident, contact the Goodin Abernathy legal team. We handle death claims, amputations, orthopedic surgeries, electrocution, burns, explosions, head /brain injuries, spinal column fractures and broken bones. You will find we care about our clients and patiently explain the legal process. Count on us to aggressively represent your claim. Contact us today.
Many Hispanics working physical labor jobs face dangerous work conditions. Unfortunately, Hispanics and many other workers sacrifice their safety in hopes of keeping their jobs for income. Attorney Jim Browne and his Legalmente Hablando Indy legal team work daily with injured workers. Often attorney Browne must request work accident reports from the Indian Occupational Safety and Hazard Administration (IOSHA). These reports describe investigation results after work injuries occur. Of course, Legalmente Hablando Indy prefers nobody gets hurt and workers enjoy safe conditions. So here are a couple options Hispanic laborers can use to prevent accidents.
IOSHA offers workers a way to privately request help enforcing safety standards in the work place. https://www.in.gov/dol/iosha/iosha-home/ IOSHA’s inspection may result in warnings or fines. But it will certainly help identify hazards and develop safety plans to reduce the risk of worker injury.
IOSHA offers two ways to file safety complaints. First, you may file a formal complaint. A formal complaint is made by a current employee or their representative. Formal complaints are assigned to a Compliance Officer for inspection, and they must meet the following requirements:
Asserts that an imminent danger, a violation of the IOSH Act or a violation of an IOSHA standard exposing employees to physical harm exists in the workplace;
Is submitted in writing; and
Is signed by at least one current employee or employee representative.
Another reporting option includes a “non-formal complaint.” Using this reporting keeps your identity anonymous. Your employer and co-workers do not learn that you or your representative made a safety complaint. A non-formal complaint does cause IOSHA to investigate the workplace for hazards complained of in the report. You may use this link to find the report in Spanish: https://www.osha.gov/form/osha7/espanol
Slip and trip injuries are the most common problems in work sites. Many of our Legalmente Hablando Indy clients suffer broken ankles, wrists and twisted knees in these accidents. We also represent many clients who have suffered injuries after falling from heights, like roofs, ladders and scaffolds. Since so much velocity and force is involved with these accidents, our clients typically suffered serious closed head injuries, broken bones and tragically, even death.
The demolition industry exposes many of our clients to additional dangers. Typically, our demolition clients are injured when heavy objects, like walls, ceilings or pipes fall onto them. Or they are burned by electric wires and fall from scissor lifts.
Amputations are injuries attorney Browne also focuses on for Indiana Worker’s Compensation claims. The amputation injury involves a special set of regulations for determining benefits. Goodin Abernathy is experienced in fighting for our clients’ best medical and financial recoveries. Contact us for free in person, telephone or video consultations if you, a friend or loved one has suffered a work injury. Jim Browne and his team care about our Hispanic clients work to provide them the best legal service available in Indiana.
Falls account for one in three construction site accident deaths. However, not all accidents are so extreme that they result in death. For many people, their injuries include bruises, cuts, broken bones, and concussions. However, it doesn’t matter if the injury is minor or severe. If it impacts your ability to work, it affects your life and family. The lawyers at Goodin Abernathy understand that a construction injury can be a life-altering accident. They fight hard to secure their clients just compensation for their injuries.
Broken Bones
The most cited OSHA safety regulation violation is the lack of fall protection on construction sites. Completed buildings have several safety features in place to protect people from falling. Buildings that are in the construction process do not have these features installed yet. This and the very nature of working up high puts construction workers at a greater risk of falling. For example, from ladders, rooftops, scaffolding, or large machinery. When you fall from a tall height, your body is at risk of breaking bones and bruising upon impact.
Other common causes of broken bones are struck-by accidents or crush accidents. This is when the construction worker gets struck by or crushed by a vehicle, machinery, or equipment. Broken bones can take months to heal, then require many more months of rehab. In some situations, the victim may never fully regain the functionality of their broken limb.
Electrocution
Because construction sites are buildings in progress, they have an increased risk of electrocution. Exposed wiring and generators present a risk by exposing construction workers to electricity. Then there is the use of power tools and electrical equipment as an everyday part of the job. If these tools are not properly maintained, they can have an electrical short that injures the user. Finally, excavation and site trenching activities can result in a construction worker unknowingly hitting buried electrical wires. When someone experiences electrocution, they can experience nerve damage, respiratory problems, seizures, and brain damage. These injuries could be short-term or long-lasting, depending on the severity of the electrocution.
Knee and Ankle Injury
Construction sites are not easy places to walk. Building materials, equipment, and tools are strewn about. Then there is the uneven ground, holes, and trenches. Navigating this minefield of potential danger can sometimes result in a slip or trip and fall. When this happens, knee and ankle injuries also occur. Minor injuries may require the injured worker to stay off their foot for weeks or months. More serious injuries could require surgery.
Back Injury
Sometimes back injuries happen from falls, being struck by, or being caught in-between accidents. But they can also occur from over-exertion. Simply being required to carry or move equipment that is too heavy for you can cause a back injury. These injuries can debilitate a person, rendering them unable to sit or stand for extended periods of time. Recovery can require rest and physical therapy to heal and strengthen the back muscles.
Head and Brain Injury
There is a reason construction workers wear hard hats. Even a minor bump to the head can cause a head or brain injury. Head injuries are tricky; minor injuries rarely cause long-term problems. However, severe injuries can create extensive complications that are long-lasting. If a construction worker suffers a head injury, they should get checked by a doctor. The most common type of injury is a concussion. Recovery requires rest, which can keep you from work. In contrast, severe head injuries can impact speech, coordination, seizures, and cognitive thought. Effects can directly impact the victim’s ability to function and prevent them from going back to work.
Spinal Cord Injury
A spinal cord injury occurs when a sudden and traumatic blow to your spine causes your spinal bones to crush, compress, or dislocate. This movement of the bones damages the spinal cord located within them. Because your spinal cord is a tight bundle of nerves that acts as a central command center for your body, these injuries can have far-reaching effects. You could experience minor numbness or total paralysis. Injury to your spinal cord is permanent. This type of injury is life-altering and affects every part of a construction worker’s life.
Illness
Asbestos and lead were once commonly found in construction. These materials are harmful to the human body. Construction workers who work on an older building could be exposed to these hazards. However, they aren’t the only dangers that can cause illness. Construction workers exposed to toxins, chemicals, solvents, and pesticides are at risk of suffering illness. This type of injury is more challenging to prove liability for. Unlike physical injuries, illness does not always happen right away. Sometimes, it can take years for the illness to become known. If you worked in construction and suspect that your illness is a result, consider speaking with a personal injury attorney.
Loss of Limb
In some caught in-between accidents, a construction worker may lose a limb. This happens when the victim gets caught where they shouldn’t be. The limb gets caught, causing it to get crushed. Another common occurrence is the loss of a finger or toe. Fingers can easily get caught in the way of a sharp blade. Toes can become injured when heavy equipment or building supplies get dropped on the foot. Depending on the limb lost, this injury can prevent the construction worker from continuing to work in the construction industry.
Internal Organ Damage
Being caught between, crushing, and fall accidents can have a devastating impact on the human body. While external damages are readily assessed, internal organ damage can lead to potentially life-threatening complications. Surgery may be required to repair the injury and stop bleeding. It can then take months or over a year for the individual to heal. During this time, they may not be able to work.
Hire a Goodin Abernathy LLP Lawyer
The Goodin Abernathy LLP attorneys handle worker’s compensation and negligence claims for clients injured on construction sites. These two legal claims involve difficult issues in which the Goodin Abernathy attorneys are experienced taking to court and fighting for our clients’ recoveries. A “work comp” case involves making a claim against the worker’s employer for statutory benefit. These include medical treatment, lost wages and physical impairment.
A “negligence” claim is the second legal area that many attorneys are not as experienced in handling. In certain situations, an injured worker can make legal claims against general contractors, project supervisors, project owners or other services typically involved in a construction project. Especially in death, amputation or serious injuries, we need to make sure our clients exhaust their legal remedies and collect the damages they are entitled to under the law. That’s why we help our clients recover more money for damages through negligence cases compared to only going after a work comp claim. In serious injuries, amputations or death claims, call the Goodin Abernathy LLP attorneys right away. We care about our clients, their families and supporting them with first-rate representation.
Do not wait to seek treatment if you’ve experienced an injury while working on a construction site. Once you have a diagnosis and treatment plan, consider speaking with a lawyer. The team at Goodin Abernathy has experience representing injured construction workers. They fight for the compensation they deserve to ensure they have financial security.
Experiencing an accident that results in injury can feel scary. The aftermath can quickly become overwhelmingly stressful as you seek medical treatment and make arrangements to repair damages. While you may feel tempted to handle it all on your own, this isn’t always the best course of action. Consulting with the team at Goodin Abernathy can provide valuable insight that you wouldn’t otherwise have knowledge of. If you see one or more of these signs, you may need to hire a personal injury lawyer to represent you in your claim.
1. Suffered Significant Injuries
Personal injury claims encompass a wide range of claims, from vehicle accidents to medical malpractice, dog bites, and slip and fall. Accidents that result in minor injuries can be simpler to seek recovery for. Submit a medical bill, and the insurance company pays for it. Things become more complicated when the injuries are more severe and extensive. Injuries extend beyond the physical and result in more significant injuries. A personal injury attorney can help their client pursue all possible avenues for maximum recovery.
Medical expenses
Pain and suffering
Mental suffering
Out of pocket expenses
2. Permanent Disability
An injury requiring years of recovery or a lifetime disability will also bring high medical costs. The insurance company may only cover care for a certain period of time or up to a specific dollar amount. The financial strain can be unbearable when the injury renders someone unable to work. The injured party should never have to cover disability costs out of pocket. A personal injury attorney can help an injured victim understand the whole scope of the current and future costs of the disability. They will then work with the insurance company to secure the compensation that covers the injured party’s disability costs.
3. Insurance Doesn’t Cover the Injuries and Damages
About 43% of working-age adults do not have adequate insurance. Unfortunately, insurance is one of the biggest challenges when pursuing a personal injury case. Minor injuries may not be an issue. These small injuries most likely won’t max out the limit. However, severe and extensive injuries can quickly create medical treatment costs that surpass an insurance policy’s limits. To further complicate recovery, insurance policies have complicated and detailed terms. This can make it difficult to secure recovery from the at-fault party’s insurance company.
After submitting a claim to the insurance company, it will likely offer a settlement amount. The insurance company is a business that wants to keep costs down. Because of this, the settlement offer will likely be low. If this settlement offer doesn’t cover the cost of treatment, consider consulting with a personal injury attorney. These are lawyers who represent injured clients every day who need assistance negotiating a settlement with the insurance company. An experienced personal injury attorney knows how insurance companies work and the tricks used to negotiate a lower settlement payout. In addition, the attorney has more knowledge about typical settlement amounts and long-term care treatment costs awarded.
4. Liability Isn’t Clear
Sometimes, liability is clear-cut. One party is clearly at fault for the accident and subsequent injuries. This makes it simpler to pursue compensation for damages from the at-fault party. Unfortunately, life isn’t always this simple. When liability isn’t clear-cut, it is up to the parties to gather and present liability evidence. Some personal injury cases only involve two parties. More complicated cases could involve multiple parties, all of who want to push liability to another party. For example, a truck accident could have multiple liable parties, including the passenger vehicle driver, truck driver, truck owner, truck maintenance company, cargo owner, or truck manufacturer. Convincing evidence is crucial for ensuring the liable party is held accountable.
Before an injured party can make a claim for the compensation of damages, they must provide liability. Time is of the essence when it comes to collecting evidence. It becomes more difficult to gather the necessary documentation to prove liability as time goes by. Consulting with a personal injury lawyer can provide much-needed guidance for the evidence-gathering process. A lawyer can advise on what type of evidence to gather that will most effectively prove liability.
5. Not Receiving Lost Wages
If an injury prevents someone from working, this creates additional stress. Medical treatment, assistance care, and rehabilitative costs rise while the injured individual is unable to work. In addition, 63% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck. They need to work to generate enough income to pay for living expenses, let alone the additional injury costs. Depending on the severity of the injury, someone could be out of work for weeks, months, or even years.
Workers’ Compensation
Workers’ compensation may be an option if the injury occurred while at work. A successful claim could grant the injured individual two-thirds of wages plus medical care coverage. In addition, there could be additional compensation awarded if the complete function of the injured body part is lost. This is dependent on the body part injured and the functionality lost.
Personal Injury
If the injury results from someone else’s actions, there may be a personal injury claim. The at-fault party’s insurance would cover the lost wages for these situations. These are typically negotiated as a part of the personal injury claim settlement process. The case goes to trial if a settlement agreement cannot be reached. Lost wages are not something that people living paycheck to paycheck can compromise on. A personal injury attorney with experience understands this and will advocate for the maximum possible award.
Consult With a Personal Injury Lawyer
You don’t have to face injury and compensation recovery on your own. Personal injury law is a broad term that covers a wide range of injuries and possible avenues for recovery. Working with a compassionate personal injury lawyer means you are not alone. The lawyers at Goodin Abernathy will put your mind at ease as they use their knowledge of the law to advocate on your behalf. Their compassion for their clients encourages their approach to aggressive representation to ensure compensation that covers the full extent of damages.

Why You Need to be Represented by the Attorneys of Goodin Abernathy LLP for Farming Accidents in Indiana
The Goodin Abernathy LLP trial attorneys are experienced with helping farm and field workers who suffer serious injuries in farming accidents. As Indiana’s harvest season begins, now is the time to use extra caution working in the fields and driving through the countryside.
The Hoosier State is ranked 10th nationally in total agricultural production and ranked in the top five states for crop production like corn and soybeans. It’s also ranked fifth in the nation for swine production and third for poultry. (https://farmflavor.com/indiana-agriculture/) With this high volume of production, numerous workers and large farm machinery are active daily in the fields of Indiana’s farms.

Since fall is when the harvest takes place, more accidents occur during this time of year. Most farm operations own and run their own semi trucks for hauling grain. Thus, more big trucks are driving throughout the countryside on state and country roads increasing possibilities that trucking accidents can occur. Grain trucks, filled full of heavy grain, are harder to stop. They can also enter the road at unmarked points during the day or night. Many do not have the proper, legally mandated, reflectors and lights. Some of these farm vehicles are even left on the side of the road without the proper materials to make them visible to other traffic on the road. Big farm machinery can also hit or run over workers in the field—especially those attempting to load produce.
Machinery accidents only allot for a portion of farming accidents. Here are some of the other accidents the attorneys of Goodin Abernathy LLP have handled:
a dairy farm hand who slipped in cold, frozen mud and fell into a manure pit where he died from toxic fume exposure;

silo accidents where young or untrained farm hands get sucked into huge amounts of grain.
Goodin Abernathy LLP attorneys also realize that many of Indiana’s agricultural workers come from out of state or even out of the country. In fact, 73% of America’s farming labor force is comprised of migrant workers.

We know losing loved ones is sad and very stressful. The COVID Pandemic has been hitting my Hispanic client base hard and causing a lot of heartache. Other cases we see involve “wrongful death” or negligent death claims. Goodin Abernathy LLP focuses on prosecuting these claims.
